So then Jamison won't be fine?

Basically, yeah. He's going to be another Brown casualty at this point if he continues to play him out of position. Too bad. He actually played pretty decently last night for the most part on offense. He needs to backup at the 4 though, please. Before the preseason started I thought he might be able to play some at the 3, but I think he can't keep up on the defensive end at that position at all any more. Better to create a mismatch on the other end as he's still pretty quick for a 4.

only reason why he's playing 3 and not 4 is bc mb wants starters in with the bench and in order to have Jordan hill and either Pau or Dwight, Jamison would have to play the 3 and Ebanks gets shafted. so I think that if Nash and Kobe are in with Ebanks Jamison and Hill at the 3,4,5 than I think they'd be Okay. Blake Meeks Jamison Hill and Dwight is also a good unit but doesn't utilize Jamison as much but it did work last night. Blake got 6 assists...that's more than Nash and Blake's playing with the bench. that shows how little nah handles the ball. with the 2nd unit Blake has the ball all the time. that's what Nash needs.

If we have Dwight in the game, why not play Jamison as a stretch 4? This is what Dwight needs, and what Jamison prefers to play anyway. You can have Nash/Meeks/Ebanks/Jamison/Dwight. Shooters, slasher, post player. Or Blake/Kobe/Ebanks/Jamison/Pau (or Dwight or Hill). You have everything this way: shooting, passing, slashing, finishing and Jamison finally gets green light to chuck shots if Kobe can't for some reason (players like Blake and Pau certainly won't complain about him shooting it). Is this really that complicated?

hell no it's not complicated. Potato head is clueless. I don't think there can any other excuse out there.

Uh, you left Metta out of these rotations. He has to have the ball 7-10 seconds on each offensive possession to dribble then chuck up a shot. He's the team chucker, not Jamison. At least that's how its been playing out so far.

Comparing a starter to a bench player. Great job showing your retardation again.

Dude you were the one that compared the two of them and said Jamison would match Harden.

Ugh I never said Jamison was as good as a Harden I said last year that he matched Harden points wise that's it. That's all I said, but this a** clown is comparing a Harden who is now starting to Jamison who is a reserve.

Look man, you are talking about a 23 year old superstar who is about to hit his prime to a guy who is going to be retiring at the end of the year. harden and jamison shouldnt even be in the same country right now no matter how much they scored last year. The only reason why Harden wasnt starting in OKC was because they had westbrook, not because he wasnt a starter. Harden has been holding his game back since he went to OKC. As you saw tonight, harden will be a mega star for the next decade. Just sayin...

My bad! I guess I should have been more clear. It was a poke at Texas Lakers Fan because he compared the two a few weeks back (when Harden was still on OKC) and said that Jamison could match Harden production wise.

You said "production wise", but even if we're talking about points wise...

edit: you weren't talking about last season, you were talking for this upcoming season.

A ridiculous one, but are you really surprised?

Lol dude are you kidding me?

Miami has Ray Allen, Udonis Haslem, and Norris Cole. OKC has James Harden and Nick Collison. We have Jamison who can match Allen and Harden production wise and we also have guys like Meeks who is a very solid shooter and Hill who's a solid defender, rebounder, and hustle player. Not to mention we have the best starting unit in the league by a mile therefore we don't really need great bench production.
